+ | Teaching points:\\ | ||
+ | The partner passes in the A part are curvy.\\ | ||
+ | In the A part, the 2s are the anchor for the figure. They end home at the end of each A and can | ||
+ | help the other dancers (who end Al proper and at other end of line) go the correct distance | ||
+ | around the circle\\ | ||
+ | The pessimist complains about the wind, an optimist hopes it will change, and a pragmatist | ||
